On this page:
White wine, the elixir for epicureans, is not only known for its fine flavour, but also for its comparatively low calorie balance. Discover how you can savour your wine moment to the full and effortlessly maintain your slim figure.
How many calories does 1 glass of white wine contain?
An average glass of white wine (approx. 150 ml) usually contains around 120 to 130 calories. This figure can vary depending on the style and variety of wine, but in general, white wine is a lighter option compared to other alcoholic beverages. The light structure and low sugar content make white wine a good choice for those watching their calorie intake. Of course, there are exceptions, especially in the south of France or Spain, where there are wines with a very high alcohol content. But there are also many low-calorie white wines in Germany and Austria.
At Drops you will find many low-calorie white wines. Why not try the natural wines from Meinklang, Rebenhof or Georg Lingenfelder.
How many calories does a bottle of white wine (1 litre) contain?
If you open a whole bottle of white wine, you can expect an average of around 600 to 700 calories. It should be noted that these figures are general estimates and can vary depending on the producer and type of wine. Nevertheless, white wine remains a moderate option overall, especially if you want to keep an eye on your calorie consumption. Comparatively strong white wines, i.e. those with a higher alcohol content, have more calories.
How many calories does a glass of white wine (0.2 litres) contain?
If you opt for a 0.2 litre glass, which corresponds to around 200 ml, you can expect to have around 160 to 180 calories. This makes white wine a lighter choice, especially if you are watching your calorie intake. The right balance is key, and with white wine you can experience pleasure without consuming too many calories.
Which wine has the fewest calories?
Among white wines, dry varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio are known for having a low sugar content, which results in fewer calories. However, the exact amount of calories varies depending on the producer and production method. It's worth checking the labels and looking for wines with a good balance of flavour and calories.
